Reflection is a great ship. We love S-Class Celebrity ships and this is one of the best. Has the full Sky Lounge instead of part of it cut out for suites. Great commons areas.

two issues: seating is starting to get a bit worn and you sit very low in many of the chairs at a table. Not enough places for readers and card players. Need more open places so we aren’t taking up places for snacking/coffee such as at El Bacio or taking tables in Oceanview/Dining room. We played during non-dining times, but still had issue sometimes. the decor is getting a bit dated with the red and orange motifs. Ship was clean and well cared for.

Dining: we early 6pm dining. 2 person table. excellent location at a window and outstanding service. tables relatively close but not close enough where if you didn’t want to talk to your neighbor, it wasn’t an issue. I’m deaf in one ear so even if I wanted to ‘eavesdrop’ on our neighbors I couldn’t! Dining choices were varied and very good quality. Never an issue for us. We do love trying varying foods but aren’t ‘foodies’.

Cabin Review

Concierge Class 2

It’s was a bump out veranda behind the suites. Great Room! Same size as most other SRs but larger veranda. Loved it. enough storage. Glass shower. Near the aft elevators but no noise whatsoever. Loved it.

Port Reviews

Southampton

So much in and near Southampton to see. went to Portsmouth and saw the HMS Victory. Fantastic.

Boston

took the ship Shuttle from dock to Quincey Market. Great restaurants around, but shops were the normal chain places. Recommend going to JFK Library (did previous cruise). Great.

New York (Manhattan)

Did on our own. Pier 88 very close to Mid-town. Walked and shopped and took in a play, “Dear Evan Hanson” - great - that evening (overnight stay). Beautiful view of Manhattan from Sky Lounge onboard.

King's Wharf

Bermuda is a fantastic island. We ferried to St George and walked on our own. Loved it.
